free for other useful reactions, such as crosslinking.

Preparation of Urethane Resins from Twin-Tailed Alcohol.

The twin-tailed alcohol, [R,(CH ),,SCH CHOH, is a precursor for derivatives particularly useful as oil and water repellents for fibrous substrates, and also useful as surfactants, protective coatings, thickeners, hair spray additives and pressure sensitive adhesives. Such derivatives have the general formula nate or an alkoxy substituted or chlorine substituted hydrocarbon isocyanate with the reactive hydrogen of a hydrocarbyl alcohol, hydrocarbyl mercaptan, hydrocarbyl phenol, hydrocarbyl thiophenol, hydrocarbyl carboxylic acid or hydrocarbyl amine; W is NCO, NHCONR'R, NHCOOR or NHCOSR where R is independently H or an organic group; m is an integer of 1-3; p is an integer of 0-5; and m p is 2-6.

The urethane resin derivatives of the above formula are particularly valuable in modifying fibrous, porous and continuous surfaces, such as papers, textiles, glass, wood, leather, fur, asbestos, bricks, concrete, metals, ceramics, plastics, painted surfaces, sponges and plaster. The preferred types of articles for modification are papers, textiles and leathers. Especially valuable is the ability of surfaces treated with these adducts to better withstand abrasive action (in addition to the advantages incident to the repellency of oil and water and re sistance to soiling imparted by coating with such adducts).

The initial step in preparing the urethane resin is to react the twin-tailed alcohol with an equimolar amount of organic isocyanate, preferably a polyisocyanate and most preferably a diisocyanate. Typical of operable isocyanate reactants are:

0C NCO CH3 H 2 QH OCON CH3 NCO OCN(CHZ)4NCO CH3 (CH2) GNCO NCO NCO

ivco

OCN NCO OCH 3 Cl 1 QCN NCO .OCH

NCO NCO NCO OCN When the isocyanate reactant is a polyisocyanate, the derivative is further reacted with an organic compound having an active hydrogen atom in sufficient amount to react with free isocyanate groups thereon. Representative compounds having active hydrogen suitable for such reaction are exemplified by alcohols, acids, amines, mercaptans and amides, for example:

cn oH CHOH Urethane resins prepared from the twintailed fluoroalkyl alcohol embodied in this invention are surprisingly superior in performance to similar resins prepared from alcohols known previously in the art, as is demonstrated by the following Examples 4 7, in which the 6 representative polyisocyanate reactant is an aryl diisocyanate.

EXAMPLE 4 To a stirred solution of 5.5 g (0.0315 mole) of 2,4

toluene diisocyanate in 40 ml of CH CC1 at room temperature is added 35.5 g (0.0314 mole of the fluorinated alcohol product of Example 3, followed by one drop of a stannous type urethane catalyst (e.g., M and T Chemicals T-9). The reaction mixture is heated at 2544C for one-half hour and than at 4450C for two hours. A solution of 2.96 g (0.0315 mole) of phenol in 10 ml of CH CCI is then added and the reaction mixture heated at 50-80C for one hour. The solution is then diluted to solids concentration with CH CCl and a few drops of methanol to remove traces of unreacted isocyanate from the product resin, for which the following structure is postulated:

EXAMPLE 4( b) The procedure of Example 4(a) is carried out except that methanol replaces phenol as the active hydrogencontaining reactant to yield a resin, for which the following structure is postulated:

EXAMPLE 4(c) where R is H or CH,

EXAMPLE 4(d) The mono-tailed alcohol (CF;,) CF(CF CONHC H OH (19.1 g, 0.0315 mole) replaces the twintailed alcohol of Example 4(a) to give a resin, for which the following structure is postulated:

i W R)CNHC H OCN CH3 EXAMPLE 4( e) The mercaptan of the structure (CF CF(CF C H SH (16.7 g, 0.0315 mole) replaces the twin-tailed alcohol of Example 4(a) to give a resin as follows:

EXAMPLE 40) The mercaptan of Example 4(e) replaces the twintailed alcohol of Example 4(b) to give a resin as follows:

EXAMPLE (a) The resinous reaction product of (a) the twin-tailed alcohol embodied herein, (b) trimethylolpropane, and (c) 2,4'toluene diisocyanate is prepared as follows:

To a stirred solution of 16.5 g (0.094 mole) of 2,4- toluene diisocyanate, ml. of ethylacetate, and 1 drop of M and T Chemicals T-9 stannous-type catalyst is added 4.2 g (0.0315 mole) of trimethylolpropane. The mixture is heated to reflux over the next two hours and then 35 g (0.0315 mole) of the twin-tailed alcohol from Example 3, [(CF;,) CF(CF C H SCH hCHOH, is added along with 100 ml of ethylacetate. After 3 hours at 4050C, the reaction mixture separates into two layers. The upper layer shows no fluorine by infrared and is discarded. The reaction product (bottom layer), having -NCO functionality, is usable as such, not only for further reactions, but is also useful as a water and oil repellent treatment material for leather.

EXAMPLE 5(b) A resinous reaction product is prepared by following the procedure of Example 5(a) except that the mercaptan (CF CF(CF CH CH SH (16.7 g., 0.0315 mole) replaces the twin-tailed alcohol reactant.

The products prepared from the alcohol of this invention (Examples 4a, 4b, 4c and 5a) are clearly superior, having excellent repellency both initially and after abrasion. Example 4d product is within the scope of US. Pat. No. 3,398,182 (claim 4) describing resins said to have especially good abrasion resistance, and its poor performance emphasizes the unexpected superiority of the resins of this invention.

Urethane resins prepared with the twin-tailed alco hols of the invention also have an important and unexpected consistency of performance under various application conditions likely to be encountered in actual use as shown in the following Examples 6 and 7.

EXAMPLE 6 In three separate preparations, isocyanate-containin g products similar to those of Example 5, except made from the fluorinated reactant shown in the table below, are reacted with stoichiometric amounts of 1:1 molar mixtures of ethyleneimine and ally] alcohol at reflux for 3 hours to give resin concentrates containing equimolar amounts of these reactants and the fluorinated reactant. These products are applied to 80 X 80 cotton fabric from a 0.571 solution in CH CCI containing a small amount of acetone or ethyl acetate to aid solubility. and the fabric dried at three temperatures with the following results (oil repellency is measured AATCC Standard Test Method l 18):

Thus, as the foregoing demonstrates, sulfur-contain- 7 ing diols and derivatives are provided by this invention represented by the formula OY OY where R, and n are as previously defined and Y and Y are independently selected from the group consisting of CCH=CH2, CNH2 and Yet further useful derivatives of the fluorinated mercaptans are the reaction productions of amines with the new epoxide being obtained according to the reaction:

where R; and n are as previously defined and R and R are independently H, alkyl, substituted alkyl, or may be part of a polymeric system. Typical specific compounds of the class are:

These compounds are readily made by merely gently heating an equivalent amount of the epoxide and amine together, with or without a solvent. For example, the second compound is obtained by warming 58.6 g (0.1 mole) of the epoxide of Example 1 with 7.2 g (0.1 mole) of CH NHC H OH at 40C for 4 hours. In like manner, the others are obtained from readily available amines including the polymeric ethyleneimine. The compounds are extremely versatile intermediates. They can be converted to ammonium salts for use as surfactants. They can be reacted with ethylene or propylene oxide to provide nonionic surfactants, and, of course, these condensates can be made into ammonium salts. Because of the reactive hydroxyl it is possible to prepare useful acrylate monomers, urethane resins, and carbamates. Because these systems can be made cationic, they have particular utility where substantivity is desirable such as in home treatment of garments to render them oil and water repellent.

The foregoing adducts and resins of this invention may be applied as a surface treatment by known methods of coating, such as spraying, roll coating, brushing, or dipping from an organic solvent solution or anionic, cationic or nonionic emulsion, or even applied as pow ders or adherent dusts. They may be applied from readily available organic solvents such as alcohols, ketones, ethers and chlorinated solvents. They may be used as the sole component in the treating liquid or as a component in a complex multi-ingredient formulation, such as cosmetic articles, waxes, polishes, cleaning mixtures and treating agents. For instance, excellent water and oil repellency and soil resistance are obtained on textile fabrics which are treated simultaneously with the adducts of this invention and conventional finishes, such as mildew preventatives, moth resisting agents, crease-proofing resins, lubricants, softeners, sizes, flame retardants, antistatic agents, dye fixatives, and water repellents. In the treatment of paper the adducts may be present as an ingredient in a wax, starch, casein, elastomer, or wet strength resin formulation. Aqueous emulsions of the fluorocarbon compositions are especially useful in the treatment of paper. By mixing the adduct in an aqueous or oil type paint for mulation, it may be applied effectively to unpainted asbestos siding, wood, metal and masonry. 1n the treatment of floors and tile surfaces and like substrates the adducts may be applied by their incorporation in an emulsion or solution.
